Tailor Made Adventure Holidays and Group Tours in Turkey

If you think you know Turkey, think again. Our group tours to this
enchanting land, long at the crossroads of civilisations, explore a side
far away from the masses visiting the southern coasts or the accessible
sites of Istanbul, Cappadocia and Ephesus. Travel with us to Turkey’s
remote eastern provinces, a land where Georgian, Persian and Armenian
influences are as prominent as anything ‘Turkish’ and will challenge
your preconceptions of this complex land. From ancient citadels to early
Christian churches as well as the remnants of civilisations that settled
here well before the birth of Christ, eastern Turkey is a treasure trove
of little visited yet fascinating sites. Its people are however the real
highlight – travelling far from the tourist crowds gives you a chance to
experience the ‘real Turkey’, devoid of tacky bazaars and crowded
monuments, and where you really are welcomed as a guest. This is Turkey
at its very best.

Travel to Turkeys remote eastern provinces to uncover a land blessed
with welcoming people and incredible sites, very different from the rest
of the country. Visit ancient ruins at Ani and the dramatic monastery of
Sumela, as well as the picturesque town of Amasya and the giant stone
heads of Mt Nemrut. Experience local hospitality at a charming homestay
and visit the unique beehive houses at Harran. And best of all, have it
all to yourself.

One of my latest discoveries is this British tour company that puts together group and independent tours to all sorts of exotic places. I'm a big fan now after they constructed an outstanding sweep across three tricky countries for me - Eritrea, Sudan, and Somalia (Somaliland). When I was hit with more than one airline schedule change (forcing a day less here, a day more there), they quickly and happily worked out fine solutions. - Bill Adams, USA
